    About this series

    How much do we really know about our neighbors?

    A Poor Woman's Wealth is a heartwarming cozy mystery about a family of detectives who struggle to uncover the truth about a legendary pirate and a rumored inheritance and how they can be the motive for murder.

    Velma is a fixture in the small town of Hurley Beach. She runs a successful beauty salon, is active in her church, and occasionally asks too many questions. She's accompanied by her reluctant sidekick–a pug named Henry.

    Her son Bernie is a retired police detective who is running a failing bait and tackle store and building a relationship with a local girl.

    Sandy, Velma's niece, is the first police chief in the small vacation town. As she and the town recover from a hurricane, she finds herself in the middle of a puzzling murder investigation.

    In book three, we follow Velma and Sandy as they discover the body of a missing man buried in a shallow grave. Why was he killed and why is everyone in his life so calm about it?

    Could the killer be a relative of the victim, the current wife, the ex-wife, or business acquaintances? Was he killed because of what he knew?

    The Hurley Beach Mystery Series is an entertaining cozy mystery series with quirky characters throughout.
